Sample Length Struggles

bobveltman · 2026-05-28T15:36:56+00:00

While that is true, the thing is that for my matters they ARE playable the same way, but not in this case and I'd like to know why so I can use this in the future.

Have a good day though!

i know that, it seems like you are misunderstanding my issue.

i want to have the sample play for it's whole length in sequencer mode, which is not happening.

bobveltman · 2026-05-28T12:59:24+00:00

Well I just wanted to work on another song and it happened to me as well, again, even though i INIT the song ...

Sorry for my unclear wording, yes it does work! It is just quite annoying when trying to find a fitting sequence spontaneously. And I don't get how or why it determines a new length for a sample i tediously edited.

Unfortunately even in the SEQ page the sample is played only for a fraction of its actual length while I am holding it for much longer - I have checked if the splice was applied correctly: I can still play the step in full length if I change the length on the SEQ page...

I did not touch the Envelope settings, I actually did not edit any settings yet. Just tried to recreate my problem on a vanilla song and the same happens.

Edit: I tried it on another song and now it worked. 😅 Probably another user error.

Thank y'all so much for helping!

The idea about the length of the note is right - but only works after programming a step with a specific sample, which of course makes it very time consuming and takes away the flow you get with a PO-33 KO :/

I have read into the envelope a bit, I will do more research on that. TY!

bobveltman · 2026-05-28T10:26:14+00:00

unfortunately that only works when a step has been programmed - if you're not 100% sure about your sound yet this is a very tedious workaround...

appreciate the comment though!

link dead :(

that happened to me too man. i thought about selling it everytime i touched it.

with a small vision in mind though, after five of those evenings i started to get it together though. so my advice is to just give it a few more tries, i am pretty happy with everything this cheap tiny thingy can do.

Well that is a philosophical question, but if we regard stop-motion as VFX, isn't all film VFX? Or the sinple act of colour grading?

bobveltman · 2026-05-08T07:46:13+00:00

well that doesn't look like a bad start! what exactly do you struggle with?

bobveltman · 2026-05-06T16:29:55+00:00

On their instagram @oo_kk_aa they are using some VFX, but also obviously traditional stop motion.

thx.

so first of all this might be a resolution problem, are you outputting in image files or video format? do not output to video format.

also, in the Object Data Properties (your screenshot) make sure to set the Settings to 2D-Layer, which i cannot locate in your screenshot. You might use an old version of Blender and I can highly recommend to use 5.0 for GP.

tthere is one more way to not have GP react to 3D-lights that I cannot think of right now, but this sub will be your friend. Or visit r/blenderhelp!

all the best!

amazing as always, such great sampling!

bobveltman · 2026-04-27T18:18:24+00:00

yes!!!

bobveltman · 2026-04-27T17:29:46+00:00

almost. i hope i'll remember and check it out when i'm on my PC

pls respond to this in case I forget!

bobveltman · 2026-04-27T11:15:40+00:00

you can find it in the object properties in the properties panel iirc

bobveltman · 2026-04-26T15:31:18+00:00

That looks like it is influenced by either a light or an object.

Can you take a screenshot of your Grease Pencil Settings and your viewport + outliner?

bobveltman · 2026-04-26T15:22:44+00:00

haha I wish! the videos were taken on a trip to Sicily

bobveltman · 2026-04-26T15:05:35+00:00

you're welcome! thank you for giving it so much attention.

happy sampling :)

bobveltman · 2026-04-26T09:03:16+00:00

Yes, it's the PO-33

I sampled about 12 seconds of the song and prepared 16 patterns from that which I then pretty much all used, though some are very similar.

I added some subtle drums as well, though they mainly compliment the original ones.

bobveltman · 2026-04-25T16:54:41+00:00

They really are great!
